متن کاملUnderstanding individual mobility patterns from urban sensing data: A mobile phone trace example
Large-scale urban sensing data such as mobile phone traces are emerging as an important data source for urban modeling. This study represents a first step towards building a methodology whereby mobile phone data can be more usefully applied to transportation research. In this paper, we present techniques to extract useful mobility information from the mobile phone traces of millions of users to...
متن کاملBehavior Revealed in Mobile Phone Usage Predicts Loan Repayment
